2021 AALAS LITERARY MAGAZINE OF THE YEAR
April Showers bring May Flowers...
Rain is one of the most cleansing elements known to man. This month we are all about cleansing our spaces, minds, bodies, and souls. Many times we pour into others, but yet are not able to pour back into ourselves. It’s vital to be intentional and aware of who is in our spaces so we can function with purpose and intent. It’s a new season, and we have entered the second quarter. We should already be settling into a positive pattern of good habits and things to do. Manifestation will always be key to establishing and keeping good vibes. Speaking of good vibes- Novelist Blacc Topp is featured on the cover this month. Charlotte's Closet is in her bag! Untamed gives us a birds-eye-view of The K Renee Experience Book Expo. Haikeem Stokes interviews DJ Tee Alford & Allison Grace talks about bossing up with Lindell Hunter. Our staples sprinkled throughout this month's issue include Minding Your Spirit with Shonda Mayes, WTF is Goin on with Erick Gray and so much more. Don’t forget to drink water, buy some cute ass rainboots, and manifest more blessings in your life. You deserve it!
Love and light
